Old Tallangatta is a locality in north east Victoria, Australia. The locality is in the Shire of Towong local government area, at the upper end of the Mitta Arm of Lake Hume near the confluence of the Mitta Mitta River and Tallangatta Creek, 372 kilometres (231 mi) north east of the state capital, Melbourne.
The locality is the original site of Tallangatta. As part of the expansion of Hume Weir in 1956, much of the town of Tallangatta was relocated to a new site on higher ground, 9 kilometres (5.6 mi) away.[citation needed]
